ABOUT WOODGRAIN

Craftsmanship begins with an idea, a mental picture, or vision that is carefully brought to life through skilled hands. At Woodgrain, we honor the creative process by acting as conduits for the ray of love and wisdom, consciously infusing these qualities into our work. This dynamic relationship between vision, materials, and skill culminates in a piece that not only meets practical needs but also resonates with inner beauty and vibrancy.Woodgrain is a specialist joinery business founded by George Stacey. Starting in Johannesburg, George built a reputation for designing, manufacturing, and installing bespoke items using solid timber, boards, and steel. With 25 years of experience in the building and joinery industry, George has dedicated the last 15 years to mastering sophisticated, high-quality joinery that seamlessly integrates into both new and existing architectural contexts.

George’s extensive building experience and sophisticated design sense allow him to precisely interpret and fulfil his clients’ joinery requirements. His personal, hands-on approach throughout the project lifecycle ensures that potential issues are anticipated and resolved pragmatically in collaboration with other construction professionals, benefiting the client and the project’s outcome.

Having established a successful workshop in Johannesburg, George expanded Woodgrain by moving to Cape Town and opening a new workshop. He built a new team from the ground up, investing significant time in mentoring and training his staff. Many of his team members started with no prior industry knowledge or joinery skills, but under George’s guidance, they have become highly skilled carpenters committed to delivering work of the highest standard.

Although based in Johannesburg and Cape Town, Woodgrain has completed projects across South Africa. The dedication to quality and craftsmanship is evident in every project, ensuring that all work is done to the highest standards. At Woodgrain, we believe in the philosophy that form follows function, creating bespoke joinery that is not only practical but also exceptionally beautiful, adding significant value to both the property and the lives of its inhabitants.

At Woodgrain, we pride ourselves on creating bespoke joinery that cannot be found in any shop. Our commitment is to tailor-made craftsmanship which means that each piece is uniquely designed and meticulously crafted to meet the specific needs and tastes of our clients.

If our work were available off-the-shelf, it would lose the personal touch and individuality that define our business. It’s the custom nature of our creations—crafted to harmonize with your home and lifestyle—that sets us apart and ensures our continued success. At Woodgrain, we believe that true craftsmanship is about more than just quality; it’s about creating pieces that are truly one-of-a-kind.
